Learning Lab

What is Learning Lab?

Some of our students bring with them different aptitudes, strengths, weaknesses, and needs. As a college preparatory school, PBS requires all students to maintain an overall 2.0 GPA. Students with average to above average intelligence but have ADHD and/or learning differences; often require individualized assistance to realize success in the academic arena. To meet the demand for this service, PBS implemented a Learning Lab for students currently enrolled at PBS.

Students may be recommended for this program by parents, teachers, or administrators. To qualify, a doctor’s ADHD diagnosis and/or complete diagnostic evaluation must be completed within the past three years by a certified professional diagnostician, psychologist, or psychiatrist. Written testing results and recommendations must be provided by the parents.

Which accommodations are offered to Learning Lab students?

The Learning Lab Coordinator will devise an individualized learning plan for each student based on their psycho-educational assessment and/or medical evaluation. Extended time for test taking is offered to students with a documented disability who have a service plan. All other accommodations other than extended time are considered on a case by case basis. A determination will be made as to the school’s ability to provide the reasonable and appropriate accommodations.

How much does this program cost?

There is a yearly fee of $1500. This can be broken down into monthly, semester, or yearly payments.
